Binoculars and microscopes: things to consider

If you are shopping for binoculars, chances are you'll want to take them out and about with you, which means you'll require a pair that is light and relatively small. For ultimate portability, consider a monocular, which is a mini telescope that will fit perfectly in a coat pocket.

This kind of item is ideal if you want something you can take on any walk, just in case you catch a glimpse of something exciting in the distance.

Microscopes, on the other hand, are much better suited to home use. However, if you're thinking of the kind of microscope you'd have used at school, think again, as technology has moved on to make these devices much more compact and useful.

There are magnifying USB microscopes on the market that connect to your computer using a USB cable, where the image from your microscope can be viewed on your monitor, making it much more comfortable to use.

The images you capture on with your microscope can easily be saved to your computer, allowing you to share what you see or simply keep your own records. These handy little devices are sold with stands, but can also be picked up and held like a pen, giving you more manoeuvrability.
